[Verse:]
|
I had a mammy for a nurse
|
When she could not be feeling worse
|
She'd take her troubles into church
|
And while the bells were ringing
|
She'd come out singing
|
|
[Refrain:]
|
The Lord done fixed up my eyes
|
I see Heaven way up there in the skies
|
Bless the Lord for fixin' my eyes
|
|
The Lord done fixed up my ears
|
I hear music like I ain't heard in years
|
Bless the Lord for fixin' my ears
|
|
The Lord done fixed up my heart
|
I got courage now
|
Ain't afraid somehow
|
|
The Lord done fixed up my soul
|
It was broken and the Lord made it whole
|
Bless the Lord for makin' my soul whole
|
Bless the Lord, bless the Lord, bless the Lord
|
|
[Patter:]
|
Down to the river, we'll go down to the river
|
And we'll wash our sins away
|
Down to the river and we'll ask the Forgiver
|
For his praise on Judgment Day
|
And we'll bless our Lord and say
|
|
